[Verse 1]

My dad is a miracle, and so's my mom

They fly over the blue

They finish their dinner and then they take one another's hands

And off they go to find a broader point of view

For it's a give and take beyond the ordinary

What with all the cats and kids that they've loved

And they-o will not be alone


[Verse 2]

Well my friends give me purple flowers and orange tea

On goosedown spilling quilts and turquoise chairs

We greet one another in a wild profusion of words

And wave farewell amidst a wonderment of air

In the laughing times we know we are lucky

In the quiet times we know that we are blessed

And we-o will not be alone


[Verse 3]

Well the light that stopped the night felt like forgiveness to you

As the garbage trucks came bustling through their rounds

You stared at the pictures on your walls

And all the postcards from your friends

As you heard the birds and old familiar sounds

And that's when you knew this world can't be saved

Only discovered

And you knew things could be different than before

And now you-o will not be alone anymore
